Beijing International Sports Film Week is jointly organised by Beijing Organising Committee for the 2022 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, China Olympic Committee and Beijing Olympic City Development Association. Beijing International Sports Film Week was founded in 2005 as an international cultural exchange event in the field of sports film and television during Beijing's preparation for the 2008 Olympic Games, and has been held for 18 times since then. Since 2010, it has become an important part of Beijing Olympic City Sports Culture Festival. In addition to introducing outstanding international sports films and TV productions, Beijing International Sports Film Week has also sent outstanding sports films and TV productions to the global finals of Milan International Sports Film and TV Festival every year, and has won the Golden Wreath Award several times. Beijing International Sports Film Week is gradually becoming one of the most important bridges for Chinese sports film and television culture to internationalization, contributing to the inheritance of the Olympic Legacies, the telling of the Chinese story and the blossoming of Chinese sports culture in the world.

Weave light and shadow in one frame and one scene and tell China's story with one person and one object. Let's look forward to the 18th Beijing International Sports Film Week lighting up the sports screen, and to Chinese sports films and TV productions shining on the international stage and together for the future!
